One of the best things we did as my tots were learning colors was have a Color Hunt! I did this with Krash when he was a tot and wrote about it in our Tot School posts on the blog.
Over a period of time, we worked through all of the colors, spending time together on certain mornings running around the house gathering everything we could find {of reasonable size} in that color. We would lay it all out together and make it photo-worthy and I snapped a picture. After all of the photos were taken, I turned these into an I Spy book for the boys and they loved it!
After we finished years ago, I never shared the tutorial for how we did this, yet I still get asked. So finally, here is the how-to post! I used Photoshop to create mine, but know that most of you don’t have access to it, and if you do you certainly know how to do this on your own!
Recently I found the online gem PicMonkey, so I am using this for my tutorial since it is free and online! You all can use it! I walked through the process, taking screenshots along the way, I hope this helps! Most of these shots speak for themselves telling you what to do in each step…
Upload the photo you want, using “edit a photo”…
Pick a font you like and that is easy for kids to read, and add the list of your items to the bottom, As you place your words, keep in mind that most printing places will crop off a small portion of the edge, so always leave a buffer around the edge so no words get cut off!
Add in your “I Spy” and the color word, in the fonts you like, placing them where you like best on the image!
Be sure to save at a high quality if you plan to print!
There you go! You now made a page for your I Spy Colors Book! 
Keep going until you have all of the colors you want and then you’ll have your very own custom made I Spy Color Book! We printed ours on 4×6 matte paper and had them spiral bound.
You could slip yours into a little 4×6 album to make it easier. Make a neat cover for your book in PicMonkey too, have fun being creative!
You could do this for numbers, shapes, or letters too! We just might be doing an alphabet one soon!
